    Let \(S\) be an \(n\)-dimensional Jordan-measurable set. \textit{E. Hlawka} [Math. Z. 49, 285--312 (1943; Zbl 0028.20606)] proved that the quotient \(Q(S)\) defined there satisfies \(Q(S)\geq 1\). The author gives a concise proof (which is best read in conjunction with the papers of the author referred to above [Monatsh. Math. 60, 1--10 (1956; Zbl 0070.27505), ibid. 59, 274--304 (1955; Zbl 0066.29204)]) of the inequality \[ Q(S)\geq 2(1+2(\tfrac 12)^n)^{-1}\cdot (1+3(\tfrac 13)^n)^{-1}. \]
